CAPiTA Mid Life Zero Snowboard 2013

Whether you're finally sessioning those rails in front of city hall or hitting the rainbow-rail at your local park, you're gonna need a set-up that is perfect for eating up those friendly walking aides commonly known as "hand-rails." The CAPiTA Mid Life Zero Snowboard is the perfect board for destroying any rail. Offering a Zero Camber profile, you get a completely flat rocker profile. This offers the most traction on any type of rail you hit, so your balance will always be evenly distributed without any gaps in the contact between your board and the rail. Being known as a park master is pretty cool, but being the guy who got arrested for finally hitting that sick urban feature, that's legendary. Check out the CAPiTA Mid Life Zero Snowboard and become the legend you've always dreamed of being.

Rocker Type

Zero Camber - Flat camber from contact point to contact point provides a slightly looser, easier to ride feel, without reducing the effective edge that results from full rocker shapes.

Radial True Twin - A radial sidecut is a single radius design causing your board to start and finish a turn on the same arc.

Core

SS Select Core - Engineered for "anytime, anywhere" performance reliability, the SS Select provides a perfect balance between energy, stability and pop. Vertically laminated poplar is lightweight and has a long grain orientation. There are no irregularities allowing for consistent uniform flex throughout the deck.

Laminates

Form 6-K - This glass configuration consists of 612 gram/meters-squared biaxial fiberglass placed on both the base and topside of the core at 0˚ and 90˚ angles. This configuration results in a board that initiates turns easily, while retaining the pop necessary to handle variable conditions. The Form 6-K laminate system is laid up wet by hand during the lamination process. This also features carbon kevlar stringers to further increase ollie power and response.

Base

HMC Extruded - A low maintenance, user-friendly base that preforms well with or without constant waxing and attention: the HMC is a special "high molecular concept" base that is denser, more durable, and more abrasion resistant than standard extruded bases. The result is a hard, fast and reliable base that will get you where you want to go fast.

Specs

Terrain:Freestyle

Freestyle

Freestyle or park snowboards tend to be a bit shorter in length and love terrain parks, rails, jibs, trash cans, tree trunks, riding switch (non-dominant foot forward), wall rides and more. Freestyle boards often feature a true twin shape, and are typically selected by those looking to ride the terrain park. A more versatile variant of a freestyle board is the all-mountain freestyle, which combines the versatility of an all mountain snowboard with the playfulness of a freestyle snowboard.

Ability Level:Intermediate-Advanced

Intermediate-Advanced

The majority of skiers/snowboarders fall into this level, whether you like to carve on groomers or venture into the powder. These skis/snowboards may be somewhat wider than beginner-intermediate skis, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Depending on the type of ski, intermediate-advanced level skis may have full camber, rocker, or some combination of the two.

Rocker Type:Flat

Flat

A flat profile is just as you’d expect – flat from near the tip of the board to near the tail. This shape splits the difference between camber and rocker, with more forgiving turnability than a fully cambered board and more precise edging capability than a fully rockered one

Flex Rating:Stiff

Stiff

The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.

Good board, fast, reactive & poppy. Took it out on a sunny spring day through ice, soft and slush conditions. Reacted strongly on groomers- with the more you put into it the more you receive. Stiff underfoot with great pop, but soft enough on nose & tail for presses. Overall would be a great park ride & carver on grooms.
